Favre to RETIRE?? RUMOR

[TomHQ]

Favre has reportedly told members on the Vikings that he will NOT be returning for another season because his ankle is just not responding like he wants it to.

Take it with a grain of salt...

Brett done?

Tweets and a report on Star Tribune saying Brett told Viks he is done

but its only Aug 3rd still can have time to change mind...

He did same thing last year

 

[SpartaChris]

Yeah, I was just about to post that here. @Jay_Glazer posted on twitter that Favre told his teammates he would NOT be playing this season due to wear and tear on his body.

It's also on Star Tribune.com

 

[TomHQ]

Honestly, I'll believe he isn't playing when it's November and he's NOT on the field.

Dammit i want him to come back for one more year. I want to show every one that the packers can beat Brett Favre. If he doesn't we will always get that doubt that we could never beat him. Other than that i could care less watching him play. I guess we will take the north with out a fight

 

[longtimefan]

Looks like maybe another lie was told by Brett? He sid he would tell his web site at the same time he told Chilly


Keep in mind his retirement is not official yet

 

[Ted's Zombie Army]

So unlike Favre to not hold a presser for this. I was expecting a Kurt Schilling type drama with the bloody sock and all.

Favre retired!

I know we've all heard this before but Brett Favre told the Vikings today that he has decided to retire. this update fresh from espn.

Someone's scared to come back to Lambeau:viksux:.

That's a big nonstory.
If he's in Mississipi after week 6, I'll believe it. Until then, I'm convinced he'll play.

You know why there are those talks, right? That's the only way Favre knows how to get attention during the offseason...

 

[G0PackG0]

I'll believe it when I see him mowing his yard filming a wrangler comercial on an October Sunday afternoon.

 

[cvg_crazy]

I know this all seems fishy to us and anyone in the NFL, i just hope its true this time. im just reporting the news. i agree i wont believe it till after about week 6 as well lol

Brett Favre Retiring? QB Reportedly Will Not Return To Vikings

He'll do that regardless of whether he plays or not haha

Our take: Brett Favre will play

We've seen the reports from Judd Zulgad and Jay Glazer. We have no reason to doubt them.Brett Favre has told the Vikings that he will not play in 2010, citing his lingering ankle problem and other physical wear and tear.That's...

Favre Retires! NFC North Champs locked up?

I no nothing is given, But I think everyone can agree we are by far the favorite to win the NFC North..Give your thoughts

 

[PackisBack]

Keeping in mind Favre probably had intentions of going to Minnesota before he "retired" the first time, I was going over the list of possible suitors for him if he's doing this just to get on a different team. This is purely hypothetical, I still think the Vikings give him the best chance to win it all, but just in case he's officially lost his mind, here are my top 3 teams that don't wear purple that Favre might want to join.

1. 49ers
2. Dolphins
3. Steelers

(in that order)

 

[JCpackers04]

ill believe it when its week 10 and Tavaras Jackson is still the quarterback...

 

[GreenBlood]

I'll tell you exactly why his re-re-retirement is for real this time. Simple. He doesn't want a loss to Rodgers on his record. We should be hearing about his 1 day contract with the Packers in the next few weeks.

 

[Milwaukee Scoop]

79% of people on JSOnline don't think he's done playing. Lol

 

[G0PackG0]

OK.. I'm kinda bummed..

If this retirement sticks. Then The Pack won't have another chance to beat #4. That bums me out.

 

[NYPacker]

I KNOW! Unlike last year, I really wanted this fool to come back. Don't worry, I think he will. He's only spreading this retirement nonsense because preseason is about to come up and he doesn't want to play in it. I suspect he'll be there in September.

 

[PackersRS]

So unlike Favre to not hold a presser for this. I was expecting a Kurt Schilling type drama with the bloody sock and all.

He's saving it for when he comes back this season.
